Review: Love this E-Reader - A number of years ago I was a reluctant convert to reading e-books. I love the feel of books, but books can be heavy. When I knew I was nearing the end of a book I would bring two more along with me so I would have a choice when it came time to pick the next one. This would make my purse VERY heavy. That was the first problem that lead me to consider reading an electronic version of a book. The second problem was that I work in a public school and being addicted to romance novels, didn't always want my students to be able to see the cover of the book I was currently reading. There were two possible solutions, the first would be to simply only read those books at home, and have a separate, more appropriate, set of books to read at school. I didn't like this option because I usually don't like to read more than one book at a time. The second solution was to get an e-reader so no one could see what I was reading, appropriate or not. At that time I purchased an e-reader from a certain popular north american book seller. I loved this e-reader, it had expandable memory, and it could read just about any format of e-book that you would want it to. The same company then came out with an updated version, as they tend to do. It was smaller, but still had the expandable memory and an added bonus of a touch screen, I upgraded. The fourth iteration of this e-reader did not include expanded memory, and it seemed clunky, so when I lost my e-reader (hopefully the person that is currently in possession of it is enjoying the many romance novels that it came with) I looked to other e-reader companies to find my replacement. Kobo's Aura had almost everything that I was looking for in an e-reader and more. I wanted an e-reader with expandable memory. Back when I used to carry three books everywhere I never imagined that some day I would be able to carry 1000 books to choose from for my next book. I wanted a glow light. Kobo Aura has an awesome glow light. I love that I can adjust it with a two finger swipe. It is able to read most formats of e-books, and the memory is not limited to books from the kobo library. I can side load as many books as I want to. The one thing that I wish it had were physical page turn buttons, but I am quickly getting used to the lack of buttons. The feature that I wasn't looking for that I absolutely love is that there is no bevel. So many times in the past I would look at my e-reader screen and get slightly disgusted by all of the dirt and grime that would be trapped under the bevel around the screen. Not only was this gross, but I wondered if it affected the sensitivity of the touch screen as from what I understood it worked from sensors that were sent out over the screen from under the bevel, if the dirt and grime was blocking the sensors, how could they tell where your fingers were? I never experience my touch screen not working, but it was a concern I have. This E-reader has a completely flat screen similar to a tablet. Which makes it easy to clean as well as giving it a very smart look. When I first got this e-reader I was concerned by how small it was. Even though the screen was the same size as my previous e-reader, it seemed so much smaller. That is another thing that I have gotten over, and I can happily say that this is something I use daily and absolutely love!
Review: Could be the best ereader on the market except.... - Like many people who own an ereader I have been searching for another one that I could use an SD card on. I have a Kindle paperwhite which I love but unfortunately it will not hold the over 3,000 books I have from other eBook stores. Until recently I have always had a Sony eReader for that. My last one was the TS2 and I absolutely loved it. The only problem I had was that it did not have a backlight. So I went searching for a new one that did. For anyone that knows the history of Sony they do not sell ereaders anymore and the Sony bookstore was bought out by Kobo. So I started researching the Kobo aura. The first thing I will say is do not purchase it through a merchant here because it really is overpriced. I managed to get it on Thanksgiving weekend with a coupon for $89.95. I was very excited when I received it and was anxious to see how it compared to the Kindle paperwhite. I will say the Kindle paperwhite words on the screen are a little more crisp but Kobo makes up for it with their advanced settings that you can tweak to get the weight of the ink in the words very clear. Loved all the advanced setting options offered by Kobo that the Kindle paperwhite does not offer as well as it's smaller size. So I was having a wonderful and lovely relationship with my new Kobo ereader for a few days until the first time I went to sideload my books purchased elsewhere that I have on a micro SD card. As I already stated, I have over 3,000 books downloaded onto a 32 gigabyte micro SD card. When I insert this card into my Sony TS-2 reader it takes about 5 minutes for it to download and process all the content and you can even read ebooks while it is doing it. Unfortunately that did not prove true with the Kobo. It took almost 8 HOURS to process the content and you cannot access anything on the eReader while it is doing it. This is also when all my troubles started when the e-reader would constantly freeze for no apparent reason. I cannot even count how many times I did a soft reset with a paper clip as well as a hard factory reset. I spent hours online troubleshooting trying to fix the issues I was having with the eReader, but they just continued to happen. At this point I figured I must have a lemon so I contacted Kobo to see about their exchange policy. Their 1-800 number refers you to the online customer service form. I filled out the form with all the details and I will say they did call me back within 5 minutes. The person on the phone had to go through all the soft reset and hard reset steps that I had already done on numerous occasions before we could do anything else. But I humored her and did them then put in my micro sd card and that was the end of that! It started processing the content at the snails pace rate I had told her it would. At this point she consulted someone else and came back and told me that the reason it takes up to 8 hours to process the content is because I have over 3,000 books on it. At this point I tried to remain calm and told her that that was absolutely ridiculous since it only took 5 minutes to do the same thing on my Sony eReader. Basically I was told that's just the way it is. Now mind you, over 3,000 books takes up a little over 2 gigabytes on my 32 gigabyte micro SD card. So can you imagine how many DAYS it would take to process the content on the ereader if I actually was using the entire 32 gigabytes of space for books to download if I followed that reasoning?! I told her that was completely unacceptable and that I wanted a refund instead if that was going to be their reasoning. It's too bad too because I really was enjoying the reader. I was really hoping to do an exchange for another one to see if it would do the same thing. I just can't imagine that it would, because the whole purpose of purchasing the Kobo eReader for people like myself is to be able to sideload books with the micro SD card and if everyone had that problem who purchased one I would have heard about it during my research. And yes, I even took the suggestion by someone in one of the troubleshooting forums and reformatted my SD card and reloaded the books on it before I inserted it into the eReader. It didn't make a bit of difference. I even tried it with another micro SD card to no avail. So it is not like I just quickly gave up, I really wanted this to work. Now I am just waiting to see how the return policy works since the Kobo company is located outside of the US.

Like many people who own an ereader I have been searching for another one that I could use an SD card on.

*by S***K on February 24, 2016*

great bit of kit, had a kobo touch before this which I can't fault but the inbuilt light of the aura makes it far better for reading at any time of day or night. my wife has a kindle with built in light and this is much heavier to hold compared to the kobo and the addition of a micro sd card means you can carry as many books as you like without having to delete books to add more
